I'm currently lowered on Tein CS version 1 with Exact front RCA's. I'm slightly tucked in the front with 19x8.5 24offset. I believe my tires are 245/35/19, but I could be wrong. The tires are slightly stretched and my fenders have been rolled.

I like my stance, but I'm rubbing when I hit a small bump on the road. This occurs even when I'm driving straight. I believe my issue might be the inside mud guards, but I'm not exactly sure.

Any ideas?

Should I remove the inside mud guards? Will it be safe?

Should I just raise the front?

Thanks for your help everyone!

 

cut it broo find out where its rubbing from you will see it

 

its not too hard to see where it is rubbing at

when you find it


CUT IT OUT!!!

 

245 on an 8.5 is not a stretch. You are most likely rubbing in the front get a skinner tire 225 or 215 and stretch it on.

 

You will have no problem if you take these out..... "Should I remove the inside mud guards? Will it be safe?"

 

Adjust your dampening setting to Hard...see if that helps.

 

Find where it's rubbing, get a heat gun and push that area out...

 

You should never ask that question, theres always a way to get rid of rubbing

 

first, i am amazed that you're even rubbing on CS with an 8.5 and a 245/35 combination. Second, exactly like spyder said, 245 on an 8.5 is nowhere near stretched...as a matter of fact thats a recommended standard size for an 8.5. If removing the inner guards doesnt work, you'll have to try a 225 on the fronts. Again i'm amazed you're rubbing at all with CS. Are you sure the a/r is 35 for your tires? If it's a 245/40 then there's your problem, go to a 35. But if youre rubbing on a 35 something is outta wack.

 

+1. This is what I'd try first.

 

fosho!

thats should actually help.

 

btw...post some pics. How low are you with the RCA? How is your camber?

 

At 24 offset..you are stretch! a litttle bit. Just do a little fender mod and you are perfect!!! I wish I can have your set up!

 

lmao how are you even rubbing.. heat gun and roll in your fender liner or just cut the part off thats rubbing

 

I'm going to do the heat gun and bat trick. I took the car out the other night and when I'm driving by myself, the car is fine. When I have a friend a passenger, the tires rubs with every little bump on the road.

I think the tire size I listed is incorrect as well. I think the tires up front might be wider.

It's raining in CA right now, I'll probably work on it next week. This should solve the problem. Thanks everyone for your help. I'll keep everyone updated.
